Introducing Rinascimento, a unique champagne cover from our K-OVER Art collection. This piece draws inspiration from the ornate Florentine style of the Medici family era, a key influencer of the European cultural Renaissance. The artwork embodies a profound connection between the human microcosm and the natural macrocosm – the harmony of water, fire, earth, and air, essential to human existence and cosmic survival.

Handcrafted by Giuliano Foglia, a master Florentine goldsmith, Rinascimento is a testament to several months of dedicated craftsmanship using advanced overhang and chasing techniques. The artistic perfection of this champagne cover is its core value. The intricacy of working with a single piece of silver, particularly without a reverse side, underscores the complexity of the task. Notably, the three-dimensional effect realized through meticulous chiseling of all components adds to the cover’s charm.

Experience the exquisite craftsmanship, timeless design, and superior quality with Rinascimento. Explore this extraordinary piece in the K-OVER Art collection, where Renaissance inspiration meets modern innovation.
